This is a recipe that my mom has been making my entire life, and I was so so so excited that they turned out so well after substituting a few things.
Enjoy!

SO HOW'D IT GO?

This is one of the best base Vegetarian Cookie Recipes ever. I modify it a touch, but these cookies have never failed to come out tasty and delicious, and impossible to tell the difference from traditional homemade Chocolate-Chip Cookies

I do find that the cookies lose some structural integrity however, if you make them too big.

If you add a tbsp each of ginger, nutmeg, and cinnamon and add a tiny bit more vanilla, these cookies will disappear into your tummy before you realize what happened. I did this last time and used dark chocolate chips. Almost ginger cookies with dark chocolate and oh so delicious.

These are the best cookies ever. My family has been vegan for 10 months now and we have finally found a WONDERFUL chocolate chip cookie. Even other family members were liking them even though they knew they were "vegan." Thank you so much for this great recipe and my children especially THANK YOU.

Delicious!! I wanted to bake some cookies in our travel trailer when we were camping and didn't want to buy Pillsbury non-vegan chemical filled dough. I made this up ahead of time and then put it in a plastic container and kept it cold until we needed it. It worked great!! Thanks for the recipe. :)

These Cookies are outstanding!!! my favourite vegan chocolate chip cookies yet!! i didn't have any apple sauce so i used an egg repalcer and i also added a heaping spoonful of peanut butter.Delicious!!!
